(And wouldn't it be > deviating from upstream if it didn't?) Once again, reread the Arch commit. The telinit binary is no longer deleted from the "systemd" package. The telinit binary is ALSO no longer added to the "systemd-sysvcompat" package. There are only two possible conclusions: - the telinit binary is currently provided by Arch's "systemd" package and is thus available on your computer *right now*. - upstream removed it, not Arch How to determine which one is correct?

Most importantly, though, was this: > As Andreas Bosch pointed out, the upstream install layout no longer > includes these, and thus, arch doesn't move them into another package. However, if you didn't read my email then, I'm not sure why you'd bother reading my second email now. So perhaps I'm just wasting my time. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
